WARNING
DO NOT INSTALL THIS FURNACE IN A MOBILE HOME!!
THIS FURNACE IS NOT
APPROVED FOR INSTALLATION
IN A MOBILE HOME. DOING SO
COULD CAUSE FIRE, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
!
WARNING
WHEN THIS FURNACE IS
INSTALLED IN A RESIDENTIAL
GARAGE, IT MUST BE
INSTALLED SO THE BURNERS
AND IGNITION SOURCE ARE
LOCATED NO LESS THAN 18
INCHES ABOVE THE FLOOR.
THIS IS TO REDUCE THE RISK
OF IGNITING FLAMMABLE
VAPORS WHICH MAY
BE PRESENT IN A GARAGE.
ALSO, THE FURNACE MUST BE
LOCATED OR PROTECTED TO
AVOID PHYSICAL DAMAGE BY
VEHICLES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS CAN
CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION,
RESULTING IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY

1. IMPORTANT: When installing the
-GGD furnace in the horizontal
configuration, a special kit must
be used to convert the furnace for
horizontal installation. The necessary kits are listed here.
2. IMPORTANT: If installing the unit
over a finished ceiling or living
area, be certain to install an auxiliary condensate drain pan under
the entire unit. Extend this auxiliary
drain pan under any evaporator
coil installed with the furnace and
the open portion of the condensate
drain assembly. See “Condensate
Drain/Neutralizer” section for more
details.
3. IMPORTANT: If using a cooling
evaporator coil with this furnace.
Be sure the air passes over the
heat exchanger before passing
over the cooling coil. The cooled
air passing over the warm ambient
air inside the heat exchanger
tubes can cause condensation
inside the tubes resulting in corrosion and eventual failure.
4. IMPORTANT: Install the furnace
level. If it is not level, condensate
cannot drain properly, possibly
causing furnace shut down.
NOTE: These furnaces are approved
for installation in attics, as well as
alcoves, utility rooms, closets and
crawlspaces. Make provisions to prevent freezing of condensate.
5. IMPORTANT: If this furnace is
installed in a garage, attic or any
other unconditioned space, a selfregulating heat tape must be
installed around the condensate
The heat tape should meet the
following requirements:
a. The heat tape must be UL listed.
b. Install the heat tape per the
manufacturer’s instructions for
the entire length of drain pipe
in the unconditioned space.
c. The heat tape should be rated
at 3 or 5 watts per foot at
120V.
6. IMPORTANT: If installing in a
utility room, be sure the door is
wide enough to:
a. allow the largest part of the
furnace to pass; or
b. allow any other appliance
(such as a water heater)
to pass.
7. Install the furnace level and
plumb. If it is not level, condensate cannot drain properly, possibly causing furnace to shut
down.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to twin
the modulating furnace. The characteristics of the ecm2 blower motor
preclude twinning applications.

SUPPLY AIR SENSOR TERMINALS
NOTE: DO NOT take return air
from bathrooms, kitchens, furnace rooms, garages, utility or
laundry rooms, or cold areas.
Return air can come from : (1)
outside the building, (2) from return
air ducting from several inside rooms,
or (3) a combination of the two.
When using outside air, design and
adjust the system to maintain a
return air temperature above 50°F
during the heating season. If return
air combes from both inside and outside the building, design the ducting
system with a diverting damper so
that the volume of return air entering
the furnace equals that which would
normally enter through the return air
intake of the furnace. Any duct opening
pulling return air from the outside must
not be any higher nor closer than 10
feet to the furnace exhaust vent.
SUPPLY AIR SENSOR
Each furnace comes shipped from the
factory with a supply air sensor. Install
the sensor, in the supply air plenum
trunk, with two, field supplied, #8 sheet
metal screws, using the following guidelines:
1. 12” downstream of the evaporator
coil, if installed.
2. If no evaporator coil is used locate
the sensor at least 18” downstream
of the furnace outlet. Always locate
the supply air sensor out of direct
line of sight of the heat exchanger
tubes, if possible.
NOTE: In downflow circumstances
where building construction does not
allow for the placement of the sensor to
fall within these parameters, the supply
air sensor should not be connected.
This means that the furnace will run
under default parameters. When running under default parameters, the “82”
code will appear for 1.5 minutes. After
that the fault code will be stored in the
control board’s memory and will show
upon power cycling. Default airflow
parameters can be manually adjusted.
See section discussing Integrated
Furnace Control (IFC) board in this
manual.
3. Attach the supply air sensor wires
onto the terminals marked “SA
Sensor” on the integrated furnace
control board (See Figure 5).
NOTE: Improper placement of the
supply air sensor can adversely
affect furnace temperature rise.

INSTALLATION WITH
PRE-EXISTING VENT
SYSTEMS
When the installation of this furnace
replaces an existing furnace that is
removed from a vent system serving
other appliances (such as a water
heater), the existing vent system is likely
to be too large to properly vent the
remaining attached appliances.
Follow the steps below with each appliance remaining connected to the original common vent system. Place the
appliance to be tested in operation,
while the other appliances remaining
connected to the common vent system
are not in operation. Test the operation
of each appliance individually by the following method.
1. Permanently seal any unused
openings in the common venting
system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system
for proper size and horizontal pitch
and determine that there is no
blockage, restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies which
could cause an unsafe condition.
3. If practical, close all building doors,
windows and all doors between the
space where the appliances
remaining connected to the common venting system are located.
Turn on clothes dryers and any
appliance not connected to the
common venting system. Turn on
any exhaust fans, such as range
hoods and bathroom exhausts, so
they will operate at maximum
speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close fireplace
dampers.
4. Follow the lighting instructions.
Place the appliance being inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat so the appliance will operate
continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood
relief opening after 5 minutes of
main burner operation. Use the
flame of a match or candle, or
smoke from a cigarette, cigar
or pipe.
6. After it has been determined that
each appliance that remains connected to the common venting
system properly vents (when
tested as outlined above), return
doors, windows, exhaust fans,
fireplace dampers and any other
gas-burning appliance to their
previous conditions of use.
7. If improper venting is observed
during any of the above tests,
resize the common venting system. Refer to latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1, or the CSA-GAMA venting tables for Category I furnaces.
NOTE: Schedule 40 ABS-DWV
pipe and fittings may be used as
an alternate to PVC pipe for the
combustion air inlet and vent
pipes.
NOTE: Cellular core PVC is also
approved for use. It must be
schedule 40 PVC-DWV cellular
pipe manufactured under ASTM
F-891.

temperatures and is corrosion resistant.
CEMENTING JOINTS
Properly seal all joints in the PVC vent
using the following materials and procedures:
PVC CLEANER-PRIMER AND
PVC MEDIUM-BODY SOLVENT
CEMENT
IMPORTANT: After cutting pipe, remove
all ragged edges and burrs. This is
important to prevent increase in pressure drop throughout the system.
1. Cut pipe end square. Chamfer edge
of pipe. Clean fitting socket and
pipe joint area of all dirt, grease and
moisture.
2. After checking pipe and socket for
proper fit, wipe socket and pipe with
cleaner-primer. Apply
a liberal coat of primer to inside surface of socket and outside of pipe.
READ INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED
WITH THE PRIMER FOR PROPER
INSTALLATION.
3. Apply a thin coat of cement evenly
in the socket. Quickly apply a heavy
coat of cement to the pipe end and
insert pipe into fitting with a slight
twisting movement until it bottoms
out.
NOTE: Cement must be fluid; if not,
recoat.
4. Hold the pipe in the fitting for 30
seconds to prevent the tapered
socket from pushing the pipe out of
the fitting.
5. Wipe all excess cement from the
joint with a rag. Allow 15 minutes
before handling. Cure time varies
according to fit, temperature and
humidity.
NOTE: Stir the solvent cement frequently while using. Use a natural
bristle, one inch wide brush or the
applicator supplied with the can.
IMPORTANT: For Proper Installation
DO NOT use solvent cement that has
become curdled, lumpy or thickened.
DO NOT thin. Observe shelf precautions printed on containers. For application below 32°F, use only low-temperature-type solvent cement.
For correct installation of the vent
pipe, follow the instructions provided
by the manufacturers of the pipe,
primer and solvent.

COMBUSTION AIR
!
WARNING
ALWAYS PROVIDE THIS FURNACE AND ANY OTHER FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCE WITH
ENOUGH FRESH AIR FOR
PROPER COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION OF THE FLUE
GASES. MOST BUILDING
CODES REQUIRE THAT OUTSIDE AIR BE SUPPLIED INTO
THE FURNACE AREA. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE
DEATH FROM CARBON
MONOXIDE POISONING.
Provide adequate facilities for combustion and ventilation air in accordance with section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 - latest edition; CAN/CGA
B149.1 and .2, or applicable provisions of the local building codes.
These combustion and ventilation
facilities must not be obstructed.
IMPORTANT: Air for combustion and
ventilation must not come from a
corrosive atmosphere. Any furnace
failure due to corrosive elements in
the atmosphere is excluded from
warranty coverage.
The following types of installation (but
not limited to the following) REQUIRE
OUTDOOR AIR for combustion, due
to chemical exposures:
• Commercial buildings
• Buildings with indoor pools
• Furnaces installed in laundry
rooms
• Furnaces in hobby or craft rooms
• Furnaces installed near chemical
storage areas.
Exposure to the following substances
in the combustion air supply (but not
limited to the following) also
REQUIRE OUTDOOR AIR for combustion:
WARNING
ALL FURNACE INSTALLATIONS
MUST COMPLY WITH THE
NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE AND
LOCAL CODES TO PROVIDE
ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION AIR FOR THE FURNACE. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN
RESULT IN EXPLOSION, FIRE,
PROPERTY DAMAGE, CARBON
MONOXIDE POISONING, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Combustion air requirements are
determined by whether the furnace
is in an open (unconfined) area or in
a confined space such as a closet or
small room.
• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine-based swimming pool
chemicals
• Water softening chemicals
• De-icing salts or chemicals
• Carbon Tetrachloride
• Halogen type refrigerants
• Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene)
• Printing inks, paint removers,
varnishes, etc.
• Hydrochloric acid
• Cements and glues
• Anti-static fabric softeners for
clothes dryers
• Masonry acid washing materials
Combustion air must be free of acid
forming chemicals such as sulphur,
fluorine, and chlorine. These elements are found in aerosol sprays,
detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, air fresheners, paint and varnish removers, refrigerants and many
other commercial and household
products. Vapors from these products
when burned in a gas flame form acid
compounds. The acid compounds
increase the dew point temperature
of the flue products and produce
highly corrosive condensate.

between the PVC pipe and other
pipes.
2. Use only medium or long radius
sweep elbows.
NOTE: For upflow and downflow
installations, extend the exhaust
pipe a minimum of 18" vertically
above the furnace cabinet before
turning the vent.
3. Vertical vent piping is preferred.
8. All piping through the roof is 2".
When using 3" pipe, reduce to
2" within 18" of the inside of
the roof.
6. All piping between the furnace and
the roof penetration is 2" or 3" as
specified in Table 6. Table 6 lists
the maximum allowable exhaust
vent pipe length for the number of

HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS
STANDARD HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS (SEE FIGURE 17)
NOTE: All furnaces with horizontal air
intakes (except those using horizontal
concentric vent kit RXGY-E03) must
have a drain tee assembly and trap
installed in the combustion air pipe as
close to the furnace as possible. This is
to drain any water that may enter the
combustion air pipe to prevent it from
entering the furnace vestibule area.
These parts are included in horizontal
vent kits RXGY-D02, RXGY-D03 and
RXGY-D04.
NOTE: The combustion air and exhaust
terminations must be at least 12 inches
above grade or anticipated snow levels.
Use alternate horizontal terminations
when termination locations are limited
and higher snow levels are anticipated.
NOTE: Ensure the location of the combustion air inlet with respect to the
exhaust vent terminal complies with
Figure 17, detail C.
Combustion Air Piping: Use a 2" PVC
coupling with a wind deflector vane (provided) installed as follows:
1. Install a 2" coupling to the combustion air pipe at the outside wall to
prevent the termination from being
pushed inward.
2. Cut a 2 1/4" length of 2" PVC pipe
and connect this to the coupling.
3. Connect another 2" coupling to the
end of the 2 1/4" length of pipe.
Terminate this outer coupling 4
inches from the wall.
4. Attach the vane in the final 2" coupling in the vertical position with
PVC cement.
IMPORTANT: To insure proper furnace operation, install the vane in the
vertical position as shown in Figure
17, Detail B. Failure to install the vane
properly can result in nuisance tripping of the pressure switch.

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
HORIZONTAL DIRECT VENTS
!
CAUTION
THE COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
AND MOISTURE IN THE FLUE
GASES WILL CONDENSE AS
THEY LEAVE THE TERMINATION. THE CONDENSATE CAN
FREEZE ON THE EXTERIOR
WALL, UNDER THE EAVES AND
ON SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
SOME DISCOLORATION TO THE
EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING IS
TO BE EXPECTED. HOWEVER,
IMPROPER LOCATION OR
INSTALLATION CAN RESULT IN
STRUCTURAL OR EXTERIOR
FINISH DAMAGE TO THE BUILDING AND MAY RECIRCULATE
PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION
INTO THE COMBUSTION AIR
TERMINAL AND FREEZE.
NOTE: In Canada vent terminations
must be in accordance with the current
CSA-B149 Gas Installation Code and/or
local codes.
In addition to the minimum clearances
listed above, the vent location should
be governed by the following guidelines.
1. Do not terminate under any kind of
patio or deck. If running the vent
under a deck, insulate it to insure
no condensate freezes and blocks
the pipe.
2. Do not terminate behind any area
that may allow the flue products to
become stagnant and recirculate.
3. Do not locate on the side of a
building with prevailing winter
winds. This will help prevent moisture from freezing on walls and
overhangs (under eaves).
4. Do not extend vent directly
through brick or masonry sur-
faces. Use a rust-resistant sheet
metal or plastic backing plate
behind vent. See Figure 16.
5. Do not locate too close to shrubs
as condensate may stunt or
kill them.
6. Minimum vertical clearances of 1
foot are recommended for overhangs up to 1 foot horizontal.
The vertical clearance should be
increased equally for each additional increase in horizontal overhang to a maximum vertical
clearance of 6 feet.
7. Caulk all cracks, seams and
joints within 6 feet horizontally
as well as 6 feet above and
below vent. See Figure 16.
FIGURE 19
MOISTURE ZONES
The vent must be installed with the following minimum clearances. See
Figures 19 and 20.
1. Locate the bottom of the vent terminal and the air inlet at least 12
inches above grade. Increase the
12-in. minimum to keep the terminal openings above the level of
snow accumulation, where applicable.
2. Do not terminate the vent over public walkways or over an area where
condensate or vapor could create a
nuisance or hazard.
3. Locate the vent terminal at least
one foot from any opening through
which flue gases could enter a
building.
2 FT. SQ. SHEET METAL PLATE ON BRICK OR
MASONRY SURFACE RECOMMENDED, BUT
NOT REQUIRED BY CODE.
4. Locate the vent terminal at least 3
feet above any forced air inlet
located within 10 feet, except the
combustion air inlet of a direct vent
appliance.
5. Allow the vent terminal minimum
horizontal clearance of 4 feet from
electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment.
6. Locate the furnace combustion air
inlet a sufficient distance from the
vent of any other gas or fuel burning appliance or electric clothes
dryer to prevent recirculation of the
flue gases into the furnace combustion air inlet. The only exception
to this requirement is the case of
multiventing two or more furnaces,
which is covered in the section on
multiventing in these instructions.

MULTIVENTING
IF VENTING TWO OR MORE FURNACES NEAR EACH OTHER IS
REQUIRED, EACH FURNACE
MUST BE INDIVIDUALLY VENTED
– NO COMMON VENTING IS PERMITTED. See Figures 18 and 19 for
positioning of the terminations. When
more than two furnaces are to be
vented, there must be at least 4 feet
between the first two furnaces and
the third, etc.
SEE CONCENTRIC VENT SECTION
ON PAGE 20 FOR MORE INFORMATION.
CONNECTING TO
FURNACE
IMPORTANT: Clean and deburr all
pipe cuts. The shavings must not be
allowed to block the exhaust, inlet or
condensate drain pipes.
IMPORTANT: When indoor combustion air is used, the inlet air opening
at the furnace must be protected
from accidental blockage. On downflow models, install a double elbow in
the top inlet air opening. See Figure
25.

UPFLOW MODELS
The exhaust air pipe connection is a 2in. female PVC pipe fitting extending
through the left side of the furnace top
plate. See Figure 23. This opening has a
protective cap which should be removed
just prior to installing the exhaust pipe.
When 2-in. pipe is used, connect it
directly to this fitting. When 3-in. pipe is
used, connect a 2 to 3-in. coupling to
this fitting with a short piece of 2-in. PVC
pipe.
The inlet combustion air connection
is at the right side of the top plate.
An alternate combustion inlet air connection may be made on the right side of
the jacket. The alternate connection
opening has a plastic cap. A combustion
inlet air connection fitting is supplied with
the furnace and it must be installed in
the furnace by screwing it into the opening. Make sure the rubber “O-ring” supplied with the furnace is used with this
fitting. See Figures 23 and 24.
IMPORTANT: When using indoor combustion air, the furnace air opening must
be protected from accidental blockage.
Install a 2-inch 90° elbow pointing downward on the side or a double elbow
pointing downward in the top opening.
See Figure 24.

CAUTION
FIGURE 26
UPFLOW CONDENSATE DRAIN
DO NOT RUN DRAIN OUTDOORS.
FREEZING OF CONDENSATE CAN
CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect into a common drain line with an air conditioner
evaporator coil drain located below the
furnace. A blocked or restricted drain line
can result in overflow of the coil pan and
negate the furnace blocked-drain shutoff
control.
➤ IMPORTANT: If installing the unit over
a finished ceiling or living area, be certain
to install an auxiliary condensate drain
pan under the entire unit extending out
under the condensate tee. With the minimum 51⁄2" riser for upflow models
or 13⁄4" for downflow models installed
above the tee, a blocked drain will result
in overflow from the riser. if the furnace is
installed in an attic, crawlspace or other
area where freezing temperatures may
occur, the furnace drain can freeze while
shut off for long periods of time.
If required by local codes, install a condensate neutralizer cartridge in the drain
line. Install cartridge in horizontal position
only. Also install an overflow line if routing
to a floor drain (see Figure 23). If available, install a condensate pump that is
resistant to acidic water. Pumps are available from your local distributor. If pump
used is not resistant to acidic water, a
condensate neutralizer must be used
ahead of the pump. The condensate
pump must have an auxiliary safety
switch to prevent operation of the furnace
and resulting overflow of condensate in
the event of pump failure. The safety
switch must be wired through the “R” circuit only (low voltage) to provide operation
in either heating or cooling modes.
UPFLOW MODELS
The condensate drain trap is located in
the blower compartment on the left- hand
side of the jacket. A short piece of 1⁄2-in.
PVC pipe and a 1⁄2-in. tee are provided.
Connect the 1⁄2-in. pipe to the elbow on
the trap and the tee to this pipe so that
the open end is upward. Run a drain tube
from the bottom of the tee to a floor drain
or condensate pump.
IMPORTANT: If installing the unit over a
finished ceiling or living area, be certain
to install an auxiliary condensate drain
pan under the entire unit extending out

IMPORTANT: When changing to the
left side, interchange the rubber grommet on the right side with the hole
plug on the left side. The hole plug
must be in place to assure that the
control compartment is sealed.
A length of 1⁄2" PVC pipe is provided
for left hand drainage. Glue one end
of the pipe to the elbow in the trap.
Cut the pipe so that it extends through
the left cabinet side one inch. Connect
the 1⁄2" tee to the pipe with a 13⁄4" riser
and drain tube as listed above. Use
the plastic plug from the left side
drainage knockout to seal the right

If possible, run a separate gas supply
line directly from the meter to the furnace. Consult the local gas company
for the location of the manual main
shut-off valve. The gas line and manual gas valve must be adequate in
size to prevent undue pressure drop
and never smaller than the pipe size

to the combination gas valve on the
furnace. Refer to Table 8 for the recommended gas pipe size for natural gas
and Table 9 for L.P. See Figures 27 &
28 for typical gas pipe connections.
Install a ground joint union inside the
cabinet to easily remove the control
valve assembly. Install a manual
shut-off valve in the gas line outside
the furnace casing. The valve should
be readily accessible to turn the gas
supply on or off. Install a drip leg in the
gas supply line as close to the furnace
as possible. Always use a pipe compound resistant to the action of liquefied
petroleum gases on all threaded connections.
IMPORTANT: When making gas pipe
connections, use a back-up wrench to
prevent any twisting of the control
assembly and gas valve.
Any strains on the gas valve can
change the position of the gas orifices in
the burners. This can cause erratic furnace operation.
IMPORTANT: Do not run a flexible gas
connector inside the unit. If local codes
allow the use of a flexible gas appliance
connector, always use a new listed connector. Do not use a connector which
has previously serviced another gas
appliance. Massachusetts law requires
that all flexible gas connectors be less
than 36”.
The gas pipe grommet in the cabinet
does not seal around a flexible gas connector. It is important to have all
openings in the cabinet burner compartment sealed for proper furnace
operation.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the furnace
gas control valve is not subjected to
high gas line supply pressures (13.5”
w.c. or above).
DISCONNECT the furnace and its individual shut-off valve from the gas supply
piping during any pressure testing that
exceeds 1/2 PSIG (3.23 kPa or 13"
w.c.).
34
GAS PRESSURE
GAS VALVE
Natural gas supply pressure should
be 5" to 10.5" w.c. LP gas supply
pressure should be 11" to 13" w.c.
This pressure must be maintained
with all other gas-fired appliances in
operation.
This furnace has a 24-volt operated
valve. It has ports for measuring
supply pressure and manifold pressure. A manual control is on the
valve body. It can be set to only the
“ON” or “OFF” positions. See
Figure 36.
The minimum supply pressure to the
gas valve for proper furnace input
adjustments is 5" w.c. for natural gas,
however 6" to 7" is recommended. The
minimum supply pressure is 10.5" w.c.
for LP gas.

➤ FURNACE OPERATION USING
MODULATING, SINGLE-STAGE, AND
TWO-STAGE THERMOSTATS
The modulating furnace with the UT
Electronic Controls IFC is also capable
of operating with a single-stage or a
two-stage thermostat as well as the
modulating thermostat. Furnaces
equipped with part # 62-24174-01 (rev
-02 or newer) or 62-24174-02 (all revisions) will operate with either singlestage or two-stage thermostats as a
modulating system using an algorithm
that utilizes three distinct firing rates;
40%, 65% and 100% of the furnace
heating capacity (See below for operation of each).
Figures 42, 43, and 44 detail how to
wire the modulating furnace for operation with a modulating thermostat, a
single-stage thermostat and a twostage thermostat respectively.
➤ FURNACE OPERATION WITH A
MODULATING THERMOSTAT
As described previously in this manual,
operation with a modulating thermostat
when installed as shown in Figure 42
is fully modulating between 40% and
100% of furnace capacity. The firing
rate is first determined by the thermostat and then sent to the furnace. This
is the optimum mode of operation and
will give the best temperature control
with minimal temperature variation
from the desired set point.
With a single stage thermostat
(installed as shown in Figure 43),
during a call for heat, the furnace will
operate as follows:
Phase 1: 0 to 5 minutes = 40% of
furnace capacity
Phase 2: 5 to 12 minutes = 65% of
furnace capacity
Phase 3: After 12 minutes = 100 %
of furnace capacity
NOTE: If the call for heat ends during any phase, the furnace will terminate immediately at the firing rate of
that phase.
If switches 1 & 2 of SW2 are in the
“ON” position (See Figure 47), the
furnace will always operate at 40%
with a single stage thermostat
installed as shown in Figure 36.
THIS CONFIGURATION IS NEITHER RECOMMENDED NOR
APPROVED.
➤ FURNACE OPERATION WITH A
SINGLE STAGE THERMOSTAT
To operate the furnace with a singlestage thermostat, set switches 1 & 2 of
SW2 (See Figure 47) to the “OFF”
position. Note that these switches
should be in the “OFF” position from
the factory. The lack of the modulating
“V” signal will automatically be sensed
as a single-stage thermostat and the
furnace will operate accordingly.
This test should be made with the
unit in full operation.

FURNACE OPERATION WITH A
TWO-STAGE THERMOSTAT
To set the furnace for operation with
two-stage thermostats, set switches 1 &
2 of SW2 to the “ON” position (See
Figure 47). Note that these switches
should be in the “OFF” position from
the factory. With both switches in the
“ON” position, the furnace can still recognize a “V” signal present and will still
operate with a modulating thermostat.
However, with both switches of SW2 in
the “ON” position, the furnace is set to
operate with a two-stage thermostat as
well.
With a two-stage thermostat (installed
as shown in Figure 44) and switch settings configured as described above,
during a call for heat, the furnace will
operate as follows:
First Stage
(“W”=ON and “W2”=OFF)
40% of furnace capacity always
Second Stage
(“W”=ON and “W2”=ON)
Phase 1: 0 to 5 minutes = 65% of furnace capacity
Phase 2: After 5 minutes = 100% of
furnace capacity
NOTE: If the call for heat ends during
any phase and/or stage, the furnace
will terminate immediately at the firing
rate of that phase and/or stage.
ACCESSORIES
FIELD-INSTALLED
OPTION ACCESSORIES
ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER
Line voltage power can be supplied from
the screw terminal “EAC”, see Figure 45,
and a line voltage neutral screw terminal
on the control board. This will power the
electronic air cleaner whenever the
ECM2+ blower is operating and delivering the recommended minimum CFM.
The 60 and 75 KBTU models, which are
capable of a maximum delivery of 1200
FIGURE 45
EAC TERMINAL
CFM, will operate the electronic air
cleaner at 500 CFM and above. The
90, 105 and 120 KBTU models,
which are capable of a maximum
delivery of 2000 CFM, will operate
the electronic air cleaner at 800
CFM and above. These limits are set
to prevent excessive production of
ozone at the lower airflows of the
modulating furnace and are based on
average requirements of commercially available electronic air cleaners.
The continuous fan speeds are set to
always provide adequate airflow for
electronic air cleaner operation.
HUMIDIFIER
The humidifier contacts (labeled
HUMIDIFIER on the IFC) are “dry”
contacts on the IFC. This means
that the terminals are connected
directly to the contacts of a boardmounted relay. The coil of the relay
is controlled by the microprocessor
of the IFC. The coil is engaged
roughly any time the heat speed
blower is engaged so that humidification is active any time the heat
blower is running. In addition to this
control, on 24 VAC humidifiers or
humidifiers controlled by a 24 VAC
control circuit, an optional 24 VAC
humidistat can be installed (see
Figure 46). With the optional
humidistat, two separate conditions
must be met before humidification of
the conditioned space can begin: 1)
There must be a heat call and the
heat speed blower must be running
and 2) The humidistat must determine that there is a need for humidification.

DEHUMIDIFICATION IN COOLING
OPERATION
Dehumidification in the cooling mode
can be accomplished by two different
methods. Both methods will reduce the
amount of airflow in cooling by 15%.
This reduced airflow will cause more
water to condense on the evaporator
coil thus reducing the humidity in the
conditioned space.
IMPORTANT: The manufacturer
requires that all cooling systems
installed with either dehumidification
feature enabled MUST have a coil of the
type with an expansion valve. RCBA
coils can be used with the feature(s)
enabled provided that there is an
expansion valve kit installed with the
coil. In addition to these requirements,
RCGA, RCBA and RCHA coils must
have a freeze-stat (part #RXRX-AM01)
installed to prevent possible coil freezeup. Note that the RCBA coils must have
BOTH an expansion valve kit and a
freeze-stat installed.
Method A: THERMOSTAT DEMAND
DE-HUMIDIFICATION
This method for dehumidification relies
on an algorithm in the modulating thermostat (part #41-24312-04) to calculate
a need for dehumidification based on
the number and frequency of cooling
calls over a specified period of time.
The feature is enabled on the thermostat interface panel. Please read and
follow the instructions for the modulating thermostat to enable this feature.
Please note that the thermostat can
only estimate when there is a need for
dehumidification by looking at the
recent history of cooling calls. This is
not a true measurement of humidity.
For true humidity measurement, a
humidistat must be installed per the
instructions in method B below.
Method B: ON-DEMAND DE-HUMIDIFICATION–REFERENCE FIGURES
40A THRU C
On UTECH IFC Revision –03 (6224174-01 rev 03)or newer (After May
12, 2004) or all revisions of 62-2417402, an additional method for dehumidification was added to the function of the
IFC. This method is not available on
units constructed before this date.
The following methods for dehumidification utilize the most accurate means for
sensing humidity. A humidistat should
be installed to the control board “YL” or
“DEHUM” and “R” terminals.
ON DEMAND DEHUMIDIFICATION
ON UTECH IFC #62-24174-01
REVISION 03 (62-24174-01 Rev -03)
A humidistat should be installed to the
control board “YL” and “R” terminals.
PLEASE NOTE THAT TWO-STAGE
COOLING AND ON-DEMAND DEHUMIDIFICATION CANNOT BE USED
AT THE SAME TIME (IFC REV. 03
ONLY). The dip switch position #6 of
bank SW-1 is used to select between
either two-stage cooling or on-demand
de-humidification, both features can not
be used at the same time because
there is only one input used for both.
Also, if neither feature is to be used, it
does not matter if the dip switch is in
the “ON” or “OFF” position. Any
humidistat can be used provided it is of
the type that can handle 24 volts and
opens the contacts when there is a
need for de-humidification.
For proper installation of On-Demand
De-Humidification, ensure the following:
A. Install one wire from one humidistat
contact terminal to the IFC “YL” terminal and another wire from the
remaining humidistat contact terminal to the IFC “R” terminal.
B. When installing, be sure to use a
humidistat and NOT a de-humidistat.
C. Position dip switch #6 of bank SW-1
to the “ON” position.
D. It is not possible to use two-stage
cooling and de-humidification feature at the same time.
NOTE: When the dip switch position #6
of bank SW-1 is in the on position, a 24
volt signal from the humidistat must be
supplied at all times to keep the blower
running at the correct cooling speed.
When the 24 VAC signal is absent, the
IFC assumes there is a need for dehumidification and operates the blower
at the reduced rate. This is what is
known as “reverse-logic”. In other
words, when a 24 VAC signal is present, normal operation occurs (100%
cooling CFM), however, when there is
no signal present, the IFC goes into the
dehumidification mode and reduces the
airflow by 15%. This could be confusing and will cause the cooling speed to
be reduced by 15% if the dip-switch is
in the “on” position but no humidistat is
connected.
ON DEMAND DEHUMIDIFICATION
IFC #62-24174-02
For IFC Revision #62-24174-02 (AVAILABLE 2ND QUARTER 2005) or later, a
new dehumidification terminal has been
added to the thermostat terminal block.
This terminal will permit the user to
install dehumidification without the need
to manipulate any dip-switches.
However, to activate the ODD feature,
a jumper located at position J5
(between the thermostat terminal block
and dip switch bank SW-2 on the IFC –
see Figure 47) must be removed and
discarded. This jumper applies 24 volts
to the “dehum” terminal at all times in
order to prevent the control from reverting to the lower (dehumidification)
speed when no voltage is applied.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the
jumper at J5 unless a humidistat is
installed to the “DEHUM” terminal of
the IFC. In addition, the control allows
the use of two-stage cooling and dehumidification at the same time and separate cooling airflows for high efficiency
(up to16 SEER) cooling. (see section
labeled “FURNACE INSTALLATION
WITH HIGH EFFICIENCY PREMIUM
COOLING SYSTEMS”).
For proper installation of OnDemand De-Humidification, ensure
the following:
A. Install one wire from one humidistat contact terminal to the IFC
“DEHUM” terminal and another
wire from the remaining humidistat contact terminal to the IFC
“R” terminal.
B. When installing, be sure to use a
humidistat and NOT a de-humidistat.
C. The jumper at position J5 on the
control (see Figure 47) has been
removed.

RXPF-F02 SYSTEM
INSTALLATION WITH
HEAT PUMPS (REFER TO
WIRING DIAGRAMS OF
FIGS 51 THRU 53)
As of May 12, 2004, the modulating
furnace systems can be installed
with heat pump systems provided
that the IFC is part number 6224174-01 REV –03 or greater or 6224174-02 and that an RXPF-F02
fossil fuel kit is used to install the
system.
Refer to Figures 51 thru 53 for various installation wiring diagrams covering different defrost controls,
refrigerant types and optional heatpump monitor installations. For further instructions, refer to the instructions delivered with the fossil fuel kit.
System Operation with
Modulating Gas Furnace with
RXPF-F02
NOTE: Modulating control must be
part number 62-24174-01 Rev. –03
or newer or 62-24174-02.
NOTE: Both dip switches of SW-2 of
the modulating control (IFC) must be
in the “ON” position (timed twostage heat operation).
NOTE: Thermostat must have a
“W2” connection for second-stage
heat when configured for a modulating furnace.
(continued on next page)
45
A. First-Stage Heat Call (Thermostat
“Y”+”B”)
(1) The system receives a demand
for heat from the indoor thermostat (“Y” and “B”)
“B” is energized when the indoor
thermostat is set to “HEAT”
“Y” is energized when the indoor
thermostat calls for heat.
(2) “B” is routed directly to the outdoor unit for the heat pump heating control system. (Usually a
reversing valve).
(3) “Y” is routed to the outdoor thermostat:
Condition 1: When the outdoor
air temperature is above the setpoint of the outdoor thermostat
and the indoor thermostat only
senses a need for first-stage
heat, the operation is normal
heat pump. Both the cooling
contactor on the condenser and
cooling speed fan on the control
board (IFC) (via “Y”) are energized at this point.
Condition 2: When the outdoor
air temperature is below the setpoint of the outdoor thermostat
and the indoor thermostat only
senses a need for first-stage
heat, heating control is switched
directly to the modulating gas
furnace by energizing “W” on the
modulating control (IFC) alone.
This will give 40% (low fire) gas
heat until either a second-stage
heat call is present or the thermostat heat call is satisfied. At
this point, the thermostat has
energized both “Y” and “B”, but
the fossil fuel kit changes the “Y”
signal into a “W” call to the modulating control. The cooling contactor is de-energized during this
mode and the compressor and
condenser fan are turned off.
The reversing valve (via “B”) is energized throughout Condition 1 or 2,
but is ignored and has no consequence in Condition 2 since the
compressor and condensing fan are
not running in Condition 2.
B. Second-Stage Heat Call
(Thermostat “W2”+”Y”+”B”)
(1) When the system thermostat
determines that the indoor air
temperature is significantly
below the setpoint of the thermostat, it will call for secondstage heat. Second-Stage heat
with a modulating furnace as
installed and wired per this document will be gas heat starting
at 65% of full fire.
“W2”, “Y” and “B” are simultaneously energized by the thermostat.
“W2” is routed to the modulating
furnace control to energize both
“W” and “V/W2” on the modulating control board (IFC) (through
the relay provided with the
RXPF-F02). This turns on gas
heat at 65% for seven minutes
followed by 100% gas heat until
the Second-Stage heat call is
satified.
46
“Y” is turned off by the FFK IWB
(Fossil Fuel Kit Interface Wiring
Board) so that the cooling contactor is NOT energized. NOTE:
At this point, “Y” from the thermostat to the FFK IWB will be
energized, however, neither “Y”
between the FFK IWB and the
cooling contactor nor “Y”
between the FFK IWB and the
modulating control (IFC) will be
energized.
The reversing valve (via “B”) is
energized during the Second-Stage
heat call, but is ignored and has no
consequence on the system since
the compressor and condensing fan
will not be running during SecondStage Heat.
C. Defrost (Thermostat “Y”+”B”)
(Defrost Control “W2”or”D”)
(1) The system receives a backup
heat demand from the outdoor
unit defrost control (Defrost
Control “W2”or”D”)
(2) When the defrost control determines there is a need to defrost
the coil, the heating call is rerouted by the defrost control
back to the FFK IWB. The
Defrost control also forces the
reversing valve to run the AC
system in cooling.
(3) The Defrost mode heat call from
the outdoor unit is routed to the
FFK IWB, through the Plenum
Sensor and finally to “W” and
“V/W2” on the modulating control (IFC). The modulating furnace begins heating at 65% of
full fire for seven minutes followed by 100% until the
heat/defrost call is satisfied.
(4) A plenum switch is provided to
control heat in the defrost mode.
This switch prevents the evaporator coil from overheating when
gas heat is running in the
defrost mode.
(5) The “Y” (Cooling) circuit remains
energized on the modulating
control (IFC). This means that
the furnace is running at either
65% or 100% of full fire heat
with cooling speed blower.
(6) The compressor and condensing fan of the cooling system will
be running in the cooling direction during the Defrost mode to
transfer heat to the condensing
coil to melt away any frost or ice
build-up on the condenser.
The reversing valve (via B) is deenergized during the defrost cycle.
During defrost mode, “B” from the
thermostat through the FFK IWB
and out to the defrost control will be
energized, but the circuit from the
defrost control to the reversing
valve will NOT be energized as the
defrost control forces the reversing
valve into cooling.
D. Call for Emergency Heat
(Thermostat “E”)
(1) In the Emergency Heat mode,
the indoor thermostat routes all
heat demands (first- and sec-
ond-stage) to the modulating
furnace so that, with an
Emergency heat call from the
thermostat, gas heat will turn
on at 65% of full fire for
seven minutes followed by
100% until the Emergency
Heat call is satisfied.
The reversing valve (via “B”) is
energized during the Emergency
Heat call, but is ignored and has
no consequence on the system
since the compressor and condensing fan will not be running
during Emergency Heat.
E. Call for Cooling (Thermostat
“O”, “Y” & “G” or “Y” & “G”)
(1) In the cooling mode, the system receives a demand for
cooling from the indoor thermostat.
When the thermostat recognizes a need for cooling, “Y”
is energized by the thermostat and the FFK IWB uses
this signal to energize “Y” to
the modulating control (IFC)
and to the cooling contactor.
In cooling, “B” is de-energized and “O” is energized.
This sets the reversing valve
for the cooling mode.
(2) “O” is routed to the outdoor
unit for the heat pump cooling control system (usually
the “Low-Ambient” relay or
alternate reversing valve
control system.)
F. Call for Continuous Fan
(Thermostat “G”)
(1) The system receives a
demand from the indoor thermostat “G”.
(2) The fan call is routed directly
to the “G” terminal on the
modulating control (IFC).

Furnaces can be ordered from the factory already converted for high altitude
elevations. The factory option for high
altitude elevations would be ordered as
a 278 option (example: a 105k BTU
upflow furnace which is factory converted for high altitude elevations would
have the model number -GFD10EZCMS278). These factory converted
furnaces come with pressure switches
for high-altitude elevations already
attached. Also, different burner orifices
are installed at the factory which are one
drill size smaller (#51 DMS) than standard -GFD/GGD gas furnaces (#50
DMS). The smaller orifice is installed to
accommodate for average heating values expected in most high altitude areas
and a required 4% per thousand feet
reduction in input as specified by the
National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC).
Specific orifices should always be recalculated for all high altitude installations
as outlined below. Orifices should be
changed, if necessary, based on gas

Divide the individual burner capacity (15,000 for 90 plus) by the Heat Value for the site to determine the Cubic Foot value at Sea Level, or divide
burner capacity by the Cubic Foot value for the Heat Value. Once you have either the Cubic Foot Value or the Heat Value you can estimate the Sea
Level orifice for the site. To select the corresponding high altitude orifice, locate the site elevation on the chart above and the orifice required at Sea
Level from your calculation in the first column. The correct high altitude orifice that must be installed in each individual burner is the intersection of
these two points on the chart above.
NOTE:
Heat Value at Sea Level, for the location of the installation, is available from the Natural Gas Supplier to that site. Orifices for all altitudes are based
on Sea Level values.
All calculations are performed by using the first three columns of information only. Before beginning any calculations, determine the
individual burner Btu size and heating value at Sea Level for the installation site. Each value shown in the Heat Value column is per
burner at 3.5" W.C.

Orifice Ordering Information
Orifice sizes are selected by adding
the 2-digit drill size required in the orifice part number. Drill sizes available
are 39 through 64; metric sizes available 1.10mm (-90) and 1.15mm (-91):
The NFGC guidelines are used with the
following exception:
Orifice Part Number 62-22175-(drill
size)
LP GAS AT HIGH ALTITUDE
ELEVATIONS
The recommended LP Gas high altitude
orifice selections differ slightly in that
the NFGC LP orifice chart, as they are
not accurate for the (-)GFD or (-)GGD
gas furnace. The National Fuel Gas
Code LP orifices are based on an 11” of
water column pressure at the orifice,
which differs from products that use 10”
of water column at the orifice. This difference requires a deviation from the
NFGC orifice size recommendations.
The Sea Level input should still be
reduced by 4% per thousand ft. and the
orifice size must be selected based on
the reduced input selection shown in
Table 12.

ZONING SYSTEMS
The manufacturer does not currently
provide or support zoning with modulating furnace. However, zoning systems
can be installed with the system as long
as the zoning equipment manufacturers
specifications and installation instructions are met and followed.
The preferred zoning method is to use
a “bypass” system which is properly
installed for maximum efficiency. In
these systems, excess air is routed
back through the system to be used
again – this is opposed to a “dump”
system in which excess air is routed to
a zone where it is expected that the
extra heat or cooling would be least
noticed.
If installed as a “bypass” system, the
installation must have an optional
freeze stat installed to prevent the coil
from icing with excess bypass cooling.
Also, if the zoning equipment manufacturer provides a limit switch (usually
provided by the zoning manufacturer),
this limit must be installed in the system
to prevent the furnace from overheating.
FURNACE INSTALLATION
WITH HIGH-EFFICIENCY
PREMIUM COOLING
SYSTEMS
Furnace installation with Rheem/Ruud
-ARA or -ARL outdoor condensing units
can provide high efficiency (up to 16
SEER) cooling operation when combined with proper evaporator coil. For
listed cooling equipment combinations,
see the -ARA or -ARL specification
sheets. Using Tables 13 and 14 and literature provided with the cooling equipment, the installer needs to make sure
that the proper evaporator coil, condensing coil and airflow is configured to
achieve rated efficiency.
UP TO 16 SEER COOLING
OPERATION
Check the revision number of the integrated furnace control (IFC) to determine how best to configure your furnace for high SEER operation.
IFC #62-24174-02
To achieve high SEER operation, turn
dip switch #6 of bank SW1 to the “on”
position. This will enable the furnace
operation for 16 SEER. Actual SEER
values will vary and depend on the
equipment combination. Consult the
specifications sheets and installation
instructions of the cooling equipment
purchased for a listing of the SEER ratings for a specific combination.
ALL OTHER INTEGRATED
FURNACE CONTROLS
High SEER operation with IFC’s
other than 62-24174-02 may not
achieve rated performance or
desired comfort levels. For these
older models, there are no additional
adjustments necessary to the furnace. For optimum performance,
replace with IFC #62-24174-02.
A NOTE ABOUT
DEHUMIDIFICATION:
High SEER systems may require the
use of the onboard dehumidification
feature of this system. Be sure to
consult the section titled “ON
DEMAND DEHUMIDIFICATION” on
page 42 of this document.
HORIZONTAL
CONVERSION KITS
RXGY-G02, RXGY-G03,
RXGY-G04 & RXGY-G05
Horizontal installation of the (-)GGD
modulating gas furnace is permitted
with the use of special kits available
from the manufacturer. The gas
valve must be mounted upright. This
is accomplished with a special manifold supplied with the conversion kit.
Assembly requires the removal of
the existing gas manifold and
replacing it with the one supplied in
the kit.

INTEGRATED FURNACE CONTROL
GENERAL
DIP SWITCH SET SW1
The UT Electronic Controls IFC board
(see Figure 41) is a recent addition to
the furnace and will be a direct replacement for all Johnson Controls IFC
boards. New features have been
added to the IFC board to improve airflow performance in the heating mode.
The new board also adds two-stage
capability in addition to the existing
modulating and single-stage operation.
Also, the locations of the original dip
switches (SW1 & SW2), and the location of the seven segment display are
different than the previous Johnson
Controls IFC board. The function of
these components has not changed.
For proper setting of the airflow switches
to meet requirements, see Figures 55
and 56.
➤ IMPORTANT: The dip switches on
SW2 (used for test mode and for operation with two-stage thermostats) must
be in the “OFF” position for modulating
or single-stage operation. If both
switches are in the “ON” position, a
missing “V” signal with a call on “W” will
cause the furnace to run only at 40%.
However, with both switches in the
“ON” position, the furnace will function
with a two-stage thermostat when connected as shown in Figure 44.
FIGURE 54
UT ELECTRONIC CONTROLS IFC BOARD
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to install a
(-)GFD or (-)GGD modulating furnace
with a conventional, add-on zone system. System performance and occupant
comfort may be compromised.
➤ DIP SWITCH SET SW2
The UT Electronic Controls IFC board
has added two-stage capabilities. This
feature is activated by changing the
switches 1 & 2 of SW2 to the “ON” position and installing a two-stage thermostat as shown in Figure 44. This feature
allows the furnace to be used with a
standard two-stage thermostat. With
switches 1 & 2 of SW2 set to the “ON”
position, the furnace will go to 40% of
capacity when “W” is energized alone.
In this configuration, when “W” and “W2”

are energized, the furnace runs at
65% for five minutes and then
changes to 100%. If the call for heat
ends at any time the furnace terminates immediately at the present firing rate.
DIP SWITCH SET SW3
The UT Electronic Controls IFC
board has an added set of dip
switches labeled SW3 (see Figure
53). The function of these dip switches is to fine-tune airflow in the heating mode. The dip switches will be
set to either the 40% or 100% (or
both) firing rate, and will adjust every
point in between accordingly.
SW3 will allow for airflow adjustments at high altitude, improper temperature probe locations, or no temperature probe applications. If temperature rise range is a problem, the
technician must use temperature
probes to determine the rise range
and adjust the airflow using SW3’s
dip switches until the temperature
rise is within the specified range.
ADJUSTING AIRFLOW
All airflow adjustments on SW3
should be made with the main power
OFF. Dip switches 1 through 3 will
adjust airflow at the 100% firing rate
and dip switches 4 through 6 will
adjust the airflow at the 40% firing
rate.
100% Firing Rate
To use SW3 to change the airflow at
the 100% rate:
1) Dip switch 1 must be “ON” (or
“ADJ”). This instructs the IFC that
the high firing rate airflow will be
overridden.
2) Dip switch 2 in the “OFF” position
will decrease airflow at 100% fire,
and in the “ON” position will
increase airflow at 100% fire.
3) If dip switch 3 is “OFF” the amount
airflow will be adjusted by 7.5%. If
it is “ON” amount of airflow will be
adjusted by 15%.
40% FIRING RATE
To use SW3 to change the airflow at
the 40% rate:
1) Dip switch 4 must be “ON” (or
“ADJ”). This instructs the IFC that
the high firing rate airflow will be
overridden.
2) Dip switch 5 in the “OFF” position
will decrease airflow at 40% fire,
and in the “ON” position will
increase airflow at 40% fire.
3) If dip switch 6 is “OFF” the amount
airflow will be adjusted by 7.5%. If
it is “ON” amount of airflow will be
adjusted by 15%.
54
FIGURE 55

AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT
EXAMPLES
Three examples of airflow adjustment
are shown below.
NOTE: All dip switches on SW3 will be
shipped in the “OFF” position.
Example 1
(see Figure 56)
PROBLEM: Temperature rise is too high
at 40% firing rate although it is within
the published range at 100% firing rate.
SOLUTION: More airflow is needed to
lower the temperature rise at 40%.
1) Set dip switches 4 and 5 of SW3 to
the “ON” position. This will produce a
7.5% increase in blower output.
2) Allow furnace to run for several minutes at 40% firing rate until temperature probes reach equilibrium.
3) If the temperature rise is still above
the published range, set switch 6 of
SW3 to the “ON” position. This will
increase the airflow rate from +7.5%
to +15% above the standard value.
EXAMPLE 2
EXAMPLE 3
(see Figure 57)
PROBLEM: Temperature rise is too low
at 100% firing rate although it is within
the published range at 40% firing rate.
SOLUTION: Less airflow is needed to
increase temperature rise at 100%.
1) Set dip switch 1 of SW3 to the “ON”
position, which overrides standard
airflow.
2) Leave switches 2 and 3 in the
“OFF” position to decrease airflow
by 7.5%.
3) Allow furnace to run for several
minutes at 100% rate until temperature probes reach equilibrium.
4) If the temperature rise is still below
the published range, set switch 3 to
the “ON” position. This will
decrease the airflow rate from 7.5% to -15% below the standard
value.

START-UP PROCEDURES
FURNACE TEST MODE
FURNACE TEST SWITCHES
NOTE: The integrated furnace control
does not recognize switch setting
changes while energized. To change settings, remove power to the board, make
changes, then return power.
The Integrated Furnace Control is
equipped with three sets of field selectable switches. The set with five switches
(SW1) (See Figures 45 and 46) is for
selecting airflow operation options
(Airflow Switches). The set with two
switches (SW2) is for placing the furnace
into test mode for initial set-up and troubleshooting and for choosing between
modulating, single-stage and two-stage
functions. (see Figure 45).
The Test Switches will place the IFC into
a test mode, operating the furnace at
continuous input rates of either 100% of
full rate (maximum fire) or 40% of full
rate (minimum fire and 2-stage operation). This is accomplished by setting the
Test Switches as indicated in Table 16.

To enter the Furnace Test Mode, proceed
as follows:
1. Switch the 115 volt power to the furnace OFF. Do not change settings
with control energized.
2. Position Test Switches 1 and 2 for
the desired test mode.
3. Switch the 115 volt power to the furnace ON.
4. Set the thermostat mode to HEAT,
adjust the setpoint at least 4°F above
room temperature to demand a call
for heating.
When the furnace is powered with the
test switches in a position other than
modulating/single-stage or in 2-stage
mode, the first call for heat within the
first hour after power-up will instruct the
furnace to perform as follows:
1. Normal ignition sequence
2. A calibration cycle will be performed
unless the Test Switches are set for
Test 40%. The LED status indicator
will flash “H” or “h” during the calibration cycle (see Table 18).
NOTE: The return air sensor (factory installed) and the supply air sensor (field installed) are required for
the furnace calibration cycle. If the
air sensors are faulty, or not properly connected, the furnace will not
attempt a calibration cycle and will
operate on factory default parameters pre-programmed into the microprocessor.
3. After calibration, the furnace will
then adjust to the desired Test
capacity. This allows time for the
technician to check steady-state
operation and evaluate furnace performance.
NOTE: Refer to Figure 54 (Furnace
Test Mode Sequence of Operation/
Troubleshooting), and Furnace
Performance Data Table 17.
4. The furnace will operate at the fixed
Test capacity until one of the following conditions:
a. The thermostat is satisfied and
the call for heat is removed.
b. The furnace has been in test
mode continuously for sixty minutes, at which time the controller
will go into modulating/singlestage operation.
NOTE: The IFC will only check the
test mode switches on power up.
Terminating the test mode by either
4a or 4b will place the furnace into
modulating or single-stage operation regardless of the test mode
switch positions.
To set the furnace for normal operation:
1. Set the thermostat mode to OFF.
Always allow furnace to complete
the cool down cycle.
2. Switch the 115 volt power to the
furnace OFF. Do not change
settings with control energized.
3. Position Test Switches 1 and 2 for
modulating/single-stage mode or
2-stage mode.
4. Switch the 115 volt power to the
furnace ON.
5. Set the thermostat as desired.

WARNING
SHOULD OVERHEATING OCCUR
OR THE GAS SUPPLY FAIL TO
SHUT OFF, CLOSE THE MANUAL GAS VALVE FOR THE APPLIANCE BEFORE SHUTTING OFF
THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE AN
EXPLOSION OR FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE,
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Heating Cycle Initiation
The heating cycle is always initiated by
a 24 volt signal on W of the thermostat.
When the controller senses 24 volts on
W, the following sequence occurs:
• High and low pressure switches are
checked to insure contacts are open.
• Inducer is powered on high speed for
a thirty (30) second prepurge.
• Pressure switches are monitored as
the inducer creates the vacuum to
close the contacts.
• The servo valve on the gas valve is
energized with ~180 milliamps current.
(No flow yet.)
• The controller sends 120 volts to the
ignition control, which sparks across
the electrodes.
• The main solenoids on the gas valve
are energized allowing gas to flow to
the burners.
• When flame is proven, the ignition
control is de-energized - 8 second
maximum trial time.
• The gas valve maintains 100% rate
through the warm-up period - 20 seconds.
Heating Cycle Response
The heating cycle is always initiated by a
24 volt signal on W1. When the controller
senses 24 volts on W1, the following
sequence occurs:
MODULATING FUNCTION:
(“W” and “V” signal inputs, refer to dip
switch set SW2 on IFC)
After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by adjusting the gas valve pressure
and blower speed anywhere between
40% to 100% heating capacity.

xC•F
Time in Seconds (for 1 cu. ft.) of Gas
Where C • F =
Gas Pressure (inch • Hg) x 520 (˚F)
Gas Temperature (˚F) x 30 (inches • Hg)
➤ TWO-STAGE FUNCTION:
(Two-stage function only applies when
both switches of SW2 are in the “ON”
position and a two-stage thermostat is
installed as shown in Figure 30.)
After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by adjusting the gas valve pressure and
blower heating speeds to the “W” signal
values. “W” only = 40% gas valve pressure and blower heating speed. “W2” =
65% gas valve pressure and blower
heating speed for first five minutes and
100% thereafter. Also, if the call for heat
ends, the furnace terminates at the present rate.
➤ SINGLE-STAGE FUNCTION:
(“W” signal only)
After the warm-up period, the furnace
will respond to the thermostat demand
by altering the gas valve pressure and
blower speed as follows:
Phase 1: 0 to 5 minutes = 40% of furnace
capacity (gas valve output and blower
speed)
Phase 2: 5 to 12 minutes = 65% of furnace capacity (gas valve output and
blower speed)
Phase 3: After 12 minutes = 100% of furnace capacity (gas valve output and
blower speed)
NOTE: If the call for heat ends during any
phase, the furnace will terminate immediately at the firing rate of that phase.
Heating Cycle Termination
(“W” signal only, refer to dip switch set
SW2 on IFC)
When the 24 volt signal is removed from
W1, the heating cycle will end and the furnace will shut down and return to the
proper off cycle operation.
SETTING INPUT RATE
Checking furnace input is important
to prevent over firing beyond its
design-rated input. NEVER SET
INPUT ABOVE THAT SHOWN ON
THE RATING PLATE. Use the following table or formula to determine
input rate. Prior to checking the furnace input, make certain that all
other gas appliances are shut off,
with the exception of pilot burners.
Time the meter with only the furnace
in operation. Start the furnace, in
Furnace Test Mode, 100% rate, and
measure the time required to burn
one cubic foot of gas.
The furnace is shipped from the factory with #50 orifices. They are sized
for natural gas having a heating
value of 1075 BTU/cu. ft. and a specific gravity of .60. For high-altitude
models (option 278) the furnace
comes equipped with #51 orifices
installed for elevations above 5,000
ft. These orifices may still need to be
changed based on both elevation
and gas heating value. Consult the
section of this book titled “High
Altitude Installation” for details.
Since heating values vary geographically, the manifold pressure and/or
gas orifice size may need to be
changed to adjust the furnace to its
nameplate input. The rate will also
vary with altitude. Consult the local
gas utility to obtain the yearly average heating value and orifice size
required to fire each individual burner
at 15,000 BTUH. For high altitude
installations, also consult the section
of this manual titled “High Altitude
Installations” for details on how to
calculate the correct orifice size.

CAUTION
DO NOT OPERATE THE SYSTEM
FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WITHOUT FILTERS. A PORTION OF
THE DUST ENTRAINED IN THE
AIR MAY TEMPORARILY LODGE
IN THE AIR DUCT RUNS AND AT
THE SUPPLY REGISTERS. ANY
RECIRCULATED DUST PARTICLES WILL BE HEATED AND
CHARRED BY CONTACT WITH
THE FURNACE HEAT EXCHANGER. THIS RESIDUE WILL SOIL
CEILINGS, WALLS, DRAPES,
CARPETS AND OTHER HOUSEHOLD ARTICLES.
LUBRICATION
IMPORTANT: Do Not attempt to lubricate the bearings on the blower motor or
the induced draft blower motor. Addition
of lubricants can reduce the motor life
and void the warranty.
The blower motor and induced draft
blower motor bearings are prelubricated
by the manufacturer and do not require
further attention.
The blower motor and induced draft
blower motor must be cleaned periodically by a qualified installer, service
agency, or the gas supplier to prevent
the possibility of overheating due to an
accumulation of dust and dirt on the
windings or on the motor exterior. The
air filters should be kept clean. As dirty
filters can restrict airflow. The motor
depends upon sufficient airflowing
across and through it to keep from overheating.
SYSTEM OPERATION
INFORMATION
4. Avoid excessive use of kitchen
exhaust fans.
5. Do not permit the heat generated
by television, lamps or radios to
influence the thermostat operation.
6. Explain proper operation of the
system with constant air circulation.
ANNUAL INSPECTION
The furnace should operate for many
years without excessive scale build-up
in the flue passageways. However, it is
recommended that a qualified installer,
service agency, or the gas supplier
annually inspect the flue passageways,
the vent system and the main burners
for continued safe operation. Pay particular attention to deterioration from corrosion or other sources.
During the annual inspection, all electrical power to the furnace should be
turned off and then restored. This will
put the furnace into a calibration cycle
on the initial call for heat. This is a five
minute (or until the heat call is satisfied)
cycle which allows the furnace to evaluate conditions It should be noted, that
a calibration cycle will occur on the initial call for heat each time after line voltage has been interrupted to the unit.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that at
the beginning and at approximately half
way through the heating season, a visual inspection be made of the main burner flames for the desired flame appearance by a qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier. If the flames
are distorted and/or there is evidence of
back pressure, check the vent and inlet
air system for blockage. If there is carbon and scale in the heat exchanger
tubes, the heat exchanger assembly
should be replaced.
Advise The Customer
IMPORTANT: Replace all blower doors
and compartment covers after servicing
the furnace. Do not operate the unit
without all panels and doors securely in
place.
1. Keep the air filters clean. The heating system will operate more efficiently and more economically.
2. Arrange the furniture and drapes so
that the supply air registers and the
return air grilles are unobstructed.
3. Close doors and windows. This will
reduce the heating load on the system.

!
WARNING
HOLES IN THE VENT PIPE OR HEAT
EXCHANGER CAN CAUSE TOXIC
FUMES TO ENTER THE HOME,
RESULTING IN CARBON MONOXIDE
POISONING OR DEATH. THE VENT
PIPE OR HEAT EXCHANGER MUST
BE REPLACED IF THEY LEAK.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating season, the flame sensor be cleaned with
steel wool by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating season, the condensate trap be inspected for debris or blockage. A blocked
condensate trap can cause water to
back up into the primary heat
exchanger and lead to nuisance tripping of the over temperature switches
and/or pressure switches.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
at the beginning of the heating season, the condensate neutralizer if
used be replaced by a qualified
installer, service agency or the gas
supplier.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that
an annual inspection and cleaning of
all furnace markings be made to
assure legibility. Attach a replacement
marking, which can be obtained
through the distributor, if any are
found to be ILlegible or missing.

INTRODUCTION
LOCATION
This thermostat is an electronic
24-VAC, wall-mounted thermostat. It
uses two set points to maintain and
control room temperature in both the
heating and cooling modes. No
batteries are required: temperature,
fan, mode, and installer configuration
settings are preserved if there is a
loss of power.
The most important consideration in
installing your electronic thermostat
is where to locate the unit. The
location can radically affect the
operation of the thermostat. To
ensure proper operation, the
thermostat should be mounted on an
inside wall, in a frequently occupied
area of the building. In addition, its
position must be at least 18 inches
(46cm) from any outside wall, and
approximately 5 feet (1.5m) above
the floor in a location with freely
circulating air of an average
temperature.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Setting 1: Sensitivity adjustment
LOCAL OR REMOTE SENSOR
This selection determines whether the
thermostat uses the local on-board
temperature sensor or an optional
remote room temperature sensor.
Factory default is LS.
The sensor options are:
LS = Local Sensor
RS = Remote Sensor
SETTING 8
SETPOINT ANTICIPATOR
This selection determines when the
program schedule time takes effect. If
set to ON the thermostat will look ahead
60 minutes into the program schedule
and slowly ramp the setpoint to satisfy
demand before the program period. If
this setting is OFF the program schedule
will switch to the scheduled temperature
at the scheduled time without ramping
the setpoint. The factory default is ON.
The setpoint anticipator options are:
OFF-CYCLE DEHUMIDIFICATION (OCD)
This setting enables or disables OCD.
Factory default is ON.
The OCD feature allows the unit to run
when there has been no call for cooling
and high humidity is present. It does this
by sensing the space temperature and
comparing that to the set point
temperature. It also uses the time
elapsed since the last cooling call
ended.
Setting 13: Local sensor offset
Setting 16: Remote sensor offset
Setting 19: Outdoor sensor offset
NOTE: Settings 2, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 14,
15, 17, and 18 are not used on this
model.
NOTE: Do not adjust for 30 minutes
after installation because the board may
be heated by handling. The selected
number is the number of degrees, plus
or minus, which will be added to the
actual temperature. The numbers can
range between -5 and +5.
PROGRAM SCHEDULE PERIODS
This setting determines the number of
program periods in the program
schedule (2 or 4). Factory default 4.
Setting 7: Local or remote sensor
selection
Setting 10: Off-Cycle dehumidification
LOCAL SENSOR OFFSET
This setting allows the room
temperature display to be adjusted by
+/- 5 degrees. The factory default is 0.
SETTING 9
SETTING 10
Setting 9: Programming periods per day
SETTING 13
ON = Anticipate setpoint change
OFF = Do not anticipate setpoint change
Setting 3: Fahrenheit or Celsius
Setting 8: setpoint anticipator
OCD activates if the last call for cooling
ended at least 75 minutes ago and the
space temperature is below the set
point. The thermostat calls for cooling
and runs the blower at 85% of its
normal cooling CFM. This cools and
dehumidifies the space air. The
equipment runs for 15 minutes then
stops.
OCD will be canceled if the space
temperature drops 2.5°F below set
point, the thermostat mode is changed,
or if a call for cooling occurs. This
feature will not be turned on at the
factory. The homeowner must turn the
feature on for it to become active.
Check instructions supplied with the
thermostat to determine how to do this.

CONSIDERATIONS
You should prepare ahead if you are
installing any of the options mentioned
in other sections of this manual.
If this is a brand new installation or a
replacement, verify:
• what kind of wire is needed or is
present
• how much (distance from the
thermostat and the equipment, and
optional equipment )
• are you installing any remote sensing
equipment (please read the
installation instructions packaged
with these units before proceeding
any further)
The thermostat is to be connected
using unshielded 18 AWG minimum

installing your electronic thermostat is
where to locate the unit. The location
can radically affect the operation of the
thermostat. To ensure proper operation,
the thermostat should be mounted on
an inside wall, in a frequently occupied
area of the building. In addition, its
position must be at least 18 inches
(46cm) from any outside wall, and
approximately 5 feet (1.5m) above the
floor in a location with freely circulating
air of an average temperature.
BE SURE TO AVOID THE
FOLLOWING LOCATIONS:
• behind doors or in corners where
freely circulating air is unavailable
• where direct sunlight or radiant heat
from appliances might affect control
operation
• on an outside wall
• adjacent to, or in line with,
conditioned air discharge grills,
stairwells, or outside doors
• where its operation may be affected
by steam or water pipes or warm air
stacks in an adjacent partition space,
or by an area not heated or cooled
behind the thermostat
• where its operation will be affected
by the supply air of an adjacent unit
• near sources of electrical
interference such as arcing relay
contacts

INTRODUCTION TO YOUR FURNACE
Thank you for the purchase of your new modulating gas furnace! This furnace is designed to be the ultimate in heating
comfort and is the only true modulating gas furnace available
on the market today.
The modulating gas furnace provides a superior level of
comfort due to the interaction of seven basic components:
• Variable Output Thermostat - Whereas conventional thermostats only send an On/Off signal to the furnace, the thermostat for the modulating furnace system is specially
designed to indicate the exact heating requirements of the
conditioned space. This is accomplished by a logic control
routine that accurately senses the space load, minimizes
recovery times, reduces temperature swings and optimizes
system efficiency and performance.
• Modulating Gas Valve - The gas valve has the conventional redundant solenoid valves for inherent safety, but also has
a third operator for capacity control. This operator is actually
a servo valve which varies the input rate of the furnace proportionally to the signal from the controller. The modulating
furnace can operate anywhere from 40% to 100% of the
nameplate input of the furnace.
• Furnace Controller - The furnace controller provides all of
the ignition and safety functions of the typical IFC as well as
interpreting the signals from the thermostat. The furnace
controller will optimize furnace performance by monitoring all
thermostat and temperature inputs and insuring the stable
operation of the inducer, gas valve and indoor blower motor.
• ECM Variable Speed Blower - The airflow through the duct
work is varied to meet the load demand. Airflow as low as
300 CFM is achieved by the response of a brushless permanent magnet variable speed blower motor.
• Two Speed Draft Inducer - To insure clean combustion
and peak efficiency, the induced draft motor speed is adjusted based on the gas valve setting to provide the proper
amount of combustion air to the burners.

SEQUENCE OF
OPERATION
Heating Cycle Initiation
The heating cycle is always initiated by a
24 volt signal on W of the thermostat.
When the controller senses 24 volts on
W, the following sequence occurs:
• High and low pressure switches are
checked to insure contacts are open.
• Inducer is powered on high speed for a
thirty (30) second prepurge.
• Pressure switches are monitored as
the inducer creates the vacuum to
close the contacts.
• The servo valve on the gas valve is
energized with ~180 milliamps current.
(No flow yet.)
• The controller sends 120 volts to the
ignition control, which sparks across
the electrodes.
• The main solenoids on the gas valve
are energized allowing gas to flow to
the burners.
• When flame is proven, the ignition control is de-energized - 8 second maximum trial time.
MODULATING FUNCTION:
(“W” and “V” signal inputs)
After the warm-up period, the furnace will
respond to the thermostat demand by
adjusting the gas valve pressure and
blower speed anywhere between 40% to
100% heating capacity.
TWO-STAGE FUNCTION:
(“W” and “W2” inputs)
After the warm-up period, the furnace will
respond to the thermostat demand by
adjusting the gas valve pressure and
blower heating speeds to the W signal
values. “W” only = 40% gas valve pressure and blower heating speed. “W” and
“W2” = 100% gas valve pressure and
blower heating speed.
SINGLE-STAGE
(“W” signal only)
After the warm-up period, the furnace will
respond to the thermostat demand by
maintaining the gas valve pressure and
blower speed at 100%.
Heating Cycle Termination
When the 24 volt signal is removed from
W1, the heating cycle will end and the furnace will shut down and return to the proper
off cycle operation.
• The gas valve maintains 100% rate
through the warm-up period - 20 seconds.
Heating Cycle Response
The heating cycle is always initiated by a
24 volt signal on W1. When the controller
senses 24 volts on W1, the following
sequence occurs:
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: IT IS RECOMMENDED
THAT AN ANNUAL INSPECTION OF
YOUR FURNACE BE MADE BY A

DO NOT OPERATE YOUR SYSTEM FOR EXTENDED PERIODS
WITHOUT FILTERS. A PORTION
OF THE DUST ENTRAINED IN
THE AIR MAY TEMPORARILY
LODGE IN THE AIR DUCT RUNS
AT THE SUPPLY REGISTERS.
ANY RECIRCULATED DUST WILL
BE HEATED AND CHARRED BY
CONTACT WITH THE FURNACE
HEAT EXCHANGER. THIS
RESIDUE WILL SOIL CEILINGS,
WALLS, DRAPES, CARPETS AND
OTHER HOUSEHOLD ARTICLES.
• Instruct children on the safety hazards associated with furnaces. Keep
children away from the furnace at all
times.
FILTER MAINTENANCE
5
Have your qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier instruct you
on how to access your filters for regular maintenance.
FILTER IN BOTTOM OR SIDE
LOCATION
1. Remove the blower compartment
access door.
DRAFT BLOWER MOTOR. ADDITION
OF LUBRICANTS CAN REDUCE THE
MOTOR LIFE AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
• Keep air filters clean at all times.
Vacuum dirt from filter, wash with
detergent and water, air dry thoroughly and reinstall.
2. Disengage the filter retaining rod and
pull filter out.
The blower compartment and motor
should be inspected and cleaned periodically by your qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier to prevent the possibility of overheating due
to an accumulation of dust and dirt on
the windings or on the motor exterior.
And, as suggested elsewhere in these
instructions, keep the air filters clean
because dirty filters can restrict airflow
and the motor depends on sufficient air
flowing across and through it to keep it
from overheating.
• After filters are cleaned and returned
to the furnace, be sure doors are
properly reinstalled. If you are not
totally sure of this procedure, consult
qualified installer, service agency or
the gas supplier.
REMOVING FILTERS
3. Clean filter and reinstall.
4. Replace the blower compartment
access door.
LUBRICATION
The blower motor and induced draft
motor are permanently lubricated by the
manufacturer and do not require further
attention.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
LUBRICATE THE BEARINGS ON THE
BLOWER MOTOR OR THE INDUCED
COMBUSTION AIR AND
VENT SYSTEM
1. It is recommended that an annual
inspection of your furnace’s combustion air and vent system be done by
a qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier.

4. Inspect the flue connection area and
vent pipe. Be sure that the vent connector is in place and slopes upward
and is physically sound, without
holes or excessive corrosion.
5. Be sure that the return air duct connections are physically sound, are
sealed to the furnace casing and terminate outside the space containing
the furnace.

7. Look for the obvious signs of deterioration of the furnace.
8. If the furnace is free of the above conditions, replace the access doors and
restore electrical power to the furnace.
9. Start the furnace and observe its operation. Watch the burner flames to see
if they are bright blue. If a suspected
malfunction is observed, or the burner
flames are not bright blue, call for
appropriate service.
CONDENSATE
This furnace is equipped with a pressure
switch which will shut off the main burners if the condensate drain line becomes
blocked.
Be sure this condensate drain line does
not become blocked or plugged. Visual
inspection of the condensate flow can
easily be made while the furnace is in
operation. Use a flashlight to illuminate
the discharge end placed in the sewer
opening. See Figures 8 & 9.
Clean and flush the condensate tube to
make sure condensate flows freely while
the furnace is in operation.
IMPORTANT: IT IS RECOMMENDED
THAT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
HEATING SEASON, THE CONDENSATE TRAP BE INSPECTED BY A
QUALIFIED INSTALLER, SERVICE
AGENCY OR THE GAS SUPPLIER FOR
DEBRIS OR BLOCKAGE. A BLOCKED
CONDENSATE TRAP CAN CAUSE
WATER TO BACK UP INTO THE PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGER AND LEAD
TO NUISANCE TRIPPING OF THE
OVER TEMPERATURE SWITCHES OR
PRESSURE SWITCHES.
IMPORTANT: IT IS RECOMMENDED
THAT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
HEATING SEASON THE CONDENSATE
NEUTRALIZER, IF USED, BE
REPLACED BY A QUALIFIED
INSTALLER, SERVICE AGENCY OR
THE GAS SUPPLIER.
